i came on my period on sunday, and it hasnt really been that good ive had big clots (slightly bigger than a 50 pence piece), and the last 3 days the pain has been soo bad (calming down but sharp pains now and again and terrible if i cough). I'm 23 and have 2 children and have never had a period like this. i have been on the pill for 2 months, my smear tests are normal and i dont have any sexually transmitted diseases. Do you think i need to go to the doctors what do you think it could be? oh and ive been dieting would that cause all this pain and clots?

It is possible that you may have endometriosis. After your period is over, make an appointment with your GYN. They will likely schedule an ultrasound to see if it is indeed endometrosis.

Go to the GP and get it checked out. If this is not normal for you then it is not normal, but not necessarily dangerous. I have the most awful periods and clots that size are not abnormal for me. I had terrible trouble with the pill and I suggest thats where you start with the Doctor. If it is that, there is always another that will suit you. Don't suffer unecessarily, go and get seen and sorted. Good health and Merry Christmas! xx

the pill as you probably know has hormones in and these could be a reason why you are experiencing this. also wieght does have a baring on how heavy you're periods are.
if you are experiencing heavy blood loss ie: u need to change ur protection every hour then it would be a good idea to seek medical help right away,
but i would advise that you see your GP as hormone inbalance can also cause this...
i hope this has helped.
feel free to e-mail me or IM me
i'll happily speak about it, as i suffered from this for years

My mom had something like that. Theres probbly a not growing inside of you from the blood during your period and you probly cut open a muscel inyour stomach not knowing it causeing it to clot up inside of you, you need to go to the doctor and get it cut out

it could be endometirous (sp?) however it could also just be dismenhorrea which is very painful periods.
there are some options which you could find help but i would see a doctor to find out which is most suited to you.
i would get it checked out just in case to make sure its not anything too serious
